Steve Hubbard, Pastor

Steve is Lead Pastor of Awaken Church. Steve, along with his wife, Courtney, and their energetic kids (Natalie, Isaiah, and Faith), planted Awaken Church with the hopes of it becoming a life-giving community of faith. Steve does most of the teachings, works with church planters-in-progress, and develops the vision for the church.

He is a Midwest kind of guy. He loves the outdoors – hunting, fishing, disc golf, hiking, and cycling – anything to get outside in the great state of Michigan. The only thing keeping him “in-doors” is an opportunity to watch a Star Wars Saga.

Dan & Katrice Sweet, Kid's Life

Dan & Katrice have worked with children for over 30 years in various forms from coaching sports to running summer camps to leading childcare at church. They love helping kids feel accepted and learn more about the Bible.

Dan & Katrice are married and are parents to son, Kaleb, and daughter, Jazlyn. In their spare time, they most enjoy nature walks, reading, and spending time with their family.

Andy serves as an advisor to Awaken and oversees accounting.

The Brace family lives in Portland along with their two dogs.
